| I'd be wary of the new Batman game, since Eidos doesnt seem to share your opinion that it will be any good. They have been trying to fix the scores, offering various magazines the chance to exclusively review the game early, as long as said review is 90% or higher. Doesnt bode well when the publisher thinks its necessary to diddle the scores.
Of the games on your list i've played [Prototype]. Its quite good as a sandbox game, but its really let down by its story, there just isnt enough of it. And without a story even the most entertaining mayhem starts to get repetitive and stale. I think its a title to go in my trade-in pile unfortunately. |

I'm sick of developers and publishers trying to bribe reviewers. Consumers rely on them and it totally trashes that idea. Reviewers may as well not exist! Any reviewer who allows himself/herself to be bribed is a problem that needs to be dealt with ASAP. FIRED! And never again allowed to review anything. Or write anything. Or have an opinion at all. A reviewer that gives in to money has decided that an opinion is worthless anyway. Be more like Gerstmann reviewers!
Holy crap...I just realized that the Gerstmann fiasco was because of Eidos too. My god! Edios! If you want good sales, make a good game! Stop trying to bribe people! I'm boycotting them. Not hard as they never make anything worthwhile. Pope, could you give me a link to this new info?_________________ Leon Fanboys Please Click Here Wesker is officially dead: http://ps3.ign.com/articles/100/1006931p1.html | NiteKrawler wrote: | | Jamesy wrote: | | Fine you win NightCrawler |

I never really got in to Fallout 3. Not sure why, it's been praised multiple times over and over again. |

i played it for a while then sold it, then fancied a go again and got it on ebay and bought all the add-ons,brilliant game, if they made every game allow add ons like this we'd definately get better value, i rented terminator salvation, omg, how easy?? 1000 gamerscore in about 3 and a half hours  |

Eidos are denying it, but then they arent exactly going to admit to fixing review scores. It will be interesting to see what Gamespot gives the game, since they have made it clear in the past that they will accept bribes. When it comes to reviews i usually rely on user posted reviews, once you filter out the fanboy/moronic reviews, you can get a reasonable idea of how a game is.

Personally i think Fallout 3 is worthy of the praise it receives, although it is no where near as good as Fallout 1 and 2. I enjoyed it a lot more than Fable 2, which was a major disappointment. |

| id like to try fallout 1 and 2, different from 3 but look just as awesome, and as for fable, i enjoyed it but found it to easy and the dlc was disappointing, just had a closer look at new splinter cell game to, that will definately be added to the 360 game collection |
